Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 1557 Nezha vs. Sun Wukong

There was a crisp "clang" sound, and Hu Sheng was shocked. He found that something was wrong with his knife. It was clearly aimed at the neck, but it ended up chopping the horn of the One-Horned Ghost King. Before he could think about it, an obscure and inexplicable Yin energy was transmitted from the blade, all the way up, first the weapon, then the fingers, wrists, arms, and finally the whole body.

In less than three breaths, Hu Sheng turned into ashes as a green light shot out from the One-Horned Ghost King's horn.

Hu Sheng had no chance to show off his self-proclaimed exquisite swordsmanship, the gold-based skills he had practiced for many years, the divine thunder talisman bestowed by Lei Zhenzi, and the many trump cards he had secretly prepared. He was instantly defeated by the mechanical monster like the One-Horned Ghost King.

His true spirit is still on the List of Gods, and theoretically he can reshape his body. As for when it will be reshaped and what divine position he will hold when he is listed among the immortals again, those are all unknown.

The main general was killed in the battle, and the three thousand heavenly soldiers and generals were defeated by the ghost soldiers, with 30% of their strength lost. They fled back to Li Jing's Demon-Subduing Palace in a very embarrassed manner.

Li Jing was furious and accused Hu Sheng of underestimating the enemy and damaging the army's morale. He then asked a general under Zheng Lun to lead the remaining 2,000 heavenly soldiers.

The next day, he sent another team of "miscellaneous soldiers" to Huaguo Mountain to challenge for a fight. This time, the main general was killed in battle by Huaguo Mountain's Monkey Horse Marshal. Li Jing was angry again and sent a confidant to lead the remaining soldiers of the fallen general.

After fighting for more than ten days, both Heaven and Flower-Fruit Mountain had victories and defeats. Li Jing used various means to continuously gather his troops, and his direct troops increased day by day.

Nezha was quite disgusted with this method of taking advantage of the opportunity to strengthen his own power, but he also knew that it was inevitable.

He rode on the Wind Fire Wheel and left the Demon-Subduing Palace alone.

Seeing that Li Jing was about to stop him, he waved his hand nonchalantly: "You go about your business, don't worry about me. I have nothing better to do, so I'll go find that monkey and have a fight!"

After saying this, he went to Huaguo Mountain on his own without waiting for Li Jing's consent.

After more than ten days of fighting, many heavenly generals and star gods were killed on the side of Heaven, and Huaguo Mountain did not gain any advantage. The one-horned ghost king, who seemed powerful at first, was killed by Mo Liqing's Qingyun Sword, and the seventy-two cave demon kings suffered heavy casualties. However, the monkeys directly under Sun Wukong suffered almost no losses.

Is Sun Wukong stupid? Absolutely not. All he lost were his vassals, and the main force remained intact. He even used the same tactics as Li Jing, using the enemy's hands to cut off the internal mountaintops of his own side, concentrating his superior forces and preparing for an even more brutal battle.

"Hey! Monkey, do you dare to come out and compete with me?" Nezha shouted while standing on the cloud.

Sun Wukong had been holding it in for several days and was itching to do something. Thanks to the gift from the Xiantian Peach Tree, he had reached a level comparable to the Taiyi Golden Immortal, and now he was desperate to find an opponent.

Marshals Ma and Liu repeatedly advised him to be patient and not fall into the trap of Heaven. However, when he saw Nezha showing off his power outside the mountain gate, he couldn't hold back even for half a cup of tea and rushed out with his golden cudgel.

"You are a rebellious man with a scaly belly. You are definitely not a good person. Today, I, Old Sun, will teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents!"

"Monster monkey, you're not very old, but you're quite arrogant. When Grandpa was exorcising demons, you weren't even born yet!"

The two parties are obviously incompatible.

He felt disgusted by the monkeys, as if he saw his own reflection in them, a rebellious and unruly version of himself. "Monster monkey, look at the gun!"

Nezha shouted loudly, and the next moment, the Fire Dragon Spear suddenly thrust out. The spear shot out like a dragon, piercing through the black clouds of resentment that had been lurking in the Flower-Fruit Mountain due to the constant killing. The miserable wails of the wronged souls were dispelled, as if a huge sun had suddenly appeared in the sky.

An expert will know if there is one as soon as he takes action.

Nezha only stabbed once, and Monkey King knew that this was the strongest enemy he had ever encountered since he started learning martial arts.

When fighting with Yang Jian in the dream, they mostly exchanged martial arts, and had almost no magical powers or spells, as he didn't know any at that time.

Nezha not only used martial arts against him, but this shot contained more than ten magic spells including the Samadhi True Fire.

Sun Wukong swung his stick to block, and the golden cudgel was stained with a faint layer of Samadhi True Fire. The flames ran wildly inside the golden cudgel, and he felt that the monkey hair on the palm of his hand was burned. He had to use greater force to sweep the stick across, and at the same time, he blocked the Fire Dragon Spear that was stabbing at his heart from the side while throwing away the Samadhi True Fire.

One of them was covered in flames, like the rising sun, and the other was covered in golden light, dazzling and brilliant.

The sound of weapons clashing was endless, and more than thirty moves were exchanged in the clouds in an instant.

Sun Wukong's realm is higher, but his realm, which is comparable to Taiyi, is not as powerful as the same level of Xuanmen Daoguo. In addition, his foundation is not as good as Nezha who has advanced step by step. In more than 30 moves, he did not gain any advantage.

This made him extremely annoyed. Sun Wukong seemed to have a good temper when he was traveling to the West, but that was the result of being suppressed for five hundred years. Now he was a powder keg that could explode at any moment.

Nezha's realm is lower than his, but he hasn't gained the advantage yet, which makes his anger rise continuously. His impatience does increase his attack power, but it also makes him lose his composure and leave more flaws.

Nezha also noticed. This monkey's realm was truly high! When had he been promoted? After careful observation, he discovered some clues. This fellow's foundation was extremely weak. After his promotion, he had been drinking and playing around, and had never practiced the meditation and consolidation of his foundation. This was not the way of Xuanmen or Daoism, but rather a bit of the Wu clan.

"The demon monkey has a great opportunity, but that's all!" The Fire Dragon Spear seemed slow but was actually fast. It seemed to be approaching the monkey's heart little by little, but in fact, hundreds or thousands of spears would be stabbed out every moment. The monkey was tired of parrying and became more and more impatient. Nezha raised his hand and took out the Hun Tian Ling, which was like a ball of fiery red flame. He wrapped around the monkey's ankle, then raised the Qiankun Ring and smashed it down on his forehead.

At the critical moment of life and death, Monkey's fighting talent was brought to the extreme. He regained his composure, first squeezed out more strength from his body, and his left foot, which was entangled by the Hun Tian Ling, flew up, kicking away the Fire Dragon Spear's sure-hit blow. Then he took advantage of the momentum, lay his body to the side, exposing his skull, and the Qiankun Circle hit his ribs hard, breaking two of his ribs.

He became extremely ferocious and didn't even look at his own injuries. He swung his golden cudgel and attacked fiercely as if he didn't care about his life. Nezha was not a pushover either. He activated his Ultra Instinct, and his body instinctively dodged while his mind was completely focused on the attack.

After another twenty moves, the injured Monkey King gradually fell into a disadvantage.

The red sun in the sky slowly suppressed the golden light. Nezha took out the Qiankun Circle again. Just as he was about to use the same trick, he suddenly saw Monkey King pluck out a handful of monkey hair, blew a breath, and instantly more than 500 monkeys appeared. Each of these monkeys held a golden cudgel and rushed towards Nezha to attack.
